I've seen several instances over the past few weeks where staging from
disk to tape just mysteriously hangs, even with space available on the
tape (as I've posted here about a time or two). Looking at the
processes,
I see this one:
/usr/sbin/nsr/nsrstage -d -b stage -m -S -f /nsr/tmp/NSRSTAGE_CMD.
5naOcL
Trouble is, /nsr/tmp/NSRSTAGE_CMD.5naOcL doesn't exist. I guess that
might
explain why it's stalled... Or not: as per its man page, -d tells
nsrstage
to delete the input file, but does it do that before it even starts to
stage? I assumed -d meant to delete the ssid file once staging
completed.
Does it read the file, delete it and then start staging?
Yes - the file won't hang around for the duration of the staging;
nsrstage deletes it as soon as its finished reading the file and
before it starts any actual staging operation.
Cheers,
Preston.
